What do people make scrambled egg in?

Did you smash it

A saucepan or a shallow pan? Can’t seem to add a poll.

Little tiny saucepan!

victor8600

Small non-stick pan, with a bit of butter and salt. But I am making only small amounts (2-3 eggs).

SortingYouOut

A non-stick pan. No milk, just eggs and real butter.

wandererz

Frying pan

Frying pan. Wipe with paper towel and set aside for washing later. Anything else is madness.

DoctorEdgeWild

Frying pan for me, only way I've ever known!

Bowl in the microwave

A microwave is best for scrambled eggs. Take care and scramble after 1 minute and each minute until just set. 30 seconds too long and they get rubbery but practice makes perfect. And much easier to clean afterwards. Ignore those who say you can't make "proper" scrambled eggs in microwave,the y are wrong.

greensausage

A cup in the microwave

SuperBowserWorld

Scrambled egg maker.

🤣

Actually a little saucepan.

whatawaster81

Tried the Gordon Ramsay method I found online. 30 seconds on the heat then 10 seconds off continually stirring. Repeat 3 minutes.

Tony EH

Saucepan with a little cooking oil. Use a whisk and beat the shite out of it. Add a little salt and enjoy.

*...Just finished a sambo and now I want scrambled eggs, thanks a million OP. 🤬

El Gato De Negocios

Non stick pan. Drop of milk, bit of butter, salt and pepper. Microwave I find them too rubbery and saucepan I find they always stock and the pan is a bugger to get cleaned afterwards.

Jim_Hodge

Saucepan. Eggs, milk, butter, salt and pepper and stir constantly while regularly removing from the heat. Perfect every time.

sasco

Always a frying pan with loads of butter and salt

Saucepan.

Mars Bar

Grew up with them always being made in the microwave but once I started doing them on the pan I just couldn't go back to microwaving

Butter.

harr

Small frying pan , butter , Salt and pepper . 30 seconds on high , off the heat stir for another 20 seconds . I don’t like over cooked scrambled eggs ..

Saucepan always- can't stand microwaved scrambled eggs - doesn't take long at all and nice looking at all the ingredients come together

Chucking in a whole bag of spinach and watching it reduce down to about 5% of what you put in is always fun too.

Tree

Non stick frying pan. Melt butter and bloom some pepper in it, egg is beaten with a splash of cream and some salt. Much easier to manage the cooking in a pan than a pot. (I flip flop between soft and custardy, and fluffy curds).

wandererz

I like mine slightly wet/runny (Gordon Ramsay style) but with a bit of flavour.

Non stick frying pan.

Butter

3 eggs - whisked with a fork,

Add milk, salt, pepper and some tomato puree or tomato sauce.

Add to frying pan and scramble over low heat.

If you have some left over salsa, that's a great way to spice up the eggs instead of the tomato sauce.

spurious

Saucepan, Gordon Ramsay style.

Cluedo Monopoly

Slow cooker.

nothing

Non stick pan, silicon spatula, little butter, 3 eggs minimum, add salt and pepper right at the end, and definitely Ramsey style for me too.

Number of eggs depending on what I'm having it with (just toast, or a big pile of fried mushrooms, or other breakfast items)

Pissy Missy

Little tiny saucepan or if I'm lazy microwave it in the bowl

mickdw

Saucepan, barely cooking and taken off the heat when runny and glossy. I put a tiny bit of butter to start and shake in light flakes of butter before serving with salt and alittle black pepper.

Count Dracula

A lightly heated saucepan laced with copious amounts of butter, salt and a dash of cream or milk, using a whisk fervently whilst allowing the eggs to cool every 20 seconds until they are ready, before adding some finely chopped Dill and crushing fresh black pepper to season.

gameoverdude

Serious lack of tabasco in the recipes.

Gloomtastic!

In a bowl in the microwave when you’ve turned the bacon on the grill/bbq so they’re ready at the same time.

I would like to hear peoples’ tips on cleaning scrambled eggs off their pot/pan/bowl before going in the dishwasher. 😋

The one thing everyone is missing are onions.

igCorcaigh

Scrambling eggs in the microwave makes it stick to the bowl... Nope.

I use a cheap Teflon omelette pan I got from Dealz. Not sure how long it'll last though. But it's perfect for now. Just give it a wipe after. No scrubbing.

igCorcaigh

No one tried the milk frother?

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/119582277#Comment_119582277

I love my hot sauces, but I find tabasco too sharp for eggs. Maybe Cholula.

thefallingman

Pan, milk butter salt and pepper, tomato at the end

Rosahane

I usually make them in the kitchen🤔

Frying pan is far easier and quicker than stopping and starting a microwave, 2 mins stirring the pan on high heat and you are done. Cleanup is as simple as a wipe with kitchen paper. No washing required.

Non stick frying pan, wipe clean, no dishwasher required. Just let the egg dry and it will flake right off.

the beer revolu

So many answers and I have a unique one 😉

I don't cook scrambled eggs much but this method was thought to me by a chef.

Put eggs in a bowl with some dabs of butter and a splash of milk or cream. Put over a pot of simmering water (bain marie) and let cook slowly, stirring regularly.

Takes about 10 minutes but doesn't require much care and they are lovely and soft.

Do you have a gas hob? I can get steam bath temperatures on my electric hob, so I can get the custard style scramblies w/o babysitting a pot of hot water.

Don't like the custard type. Much prefer the drier, chunky type.

twowheelsonly

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/119583526#Comment_119583526

That's one of the best methods IMO. A bit slower but nice and clean (no burning !!!) and easy to judge when they're done to your satisfaction.

It's also far and away the best method if you're doing a large amount, hence why Chefs will regularly do it this way.

For washing, cold water immediately after serving, like for porridge, otherwise it continues to cook to the saucepan.

I am my dishwasher.

Strumms

Saucepan… if it’s in the frying pan it’s a scrambled omelette

Alun

This ^^^ You end up with something more like what the Germans call Rühreier. You start making an omelette, and then half way through start messing it up a bit. Nothing wrong with that, but it's not scrambled eggs as we normally know it.

AMKC

Depends on how much I want sometimes a big cup and sometimes a jug. Never done it in a saucepan or a pan.

Anything made outside of a saucepan is not scrambled egg.

shortcircuit_99

I have a carbon steel pan that has good seasoning on it. Does a great job for scrambled eggs, and no evil Teflon chemicals needed

lenscap

Non-stick wok, free range eggs and butter. I use a rubber spatula to stir and fold.

gameoverdude

Piss off with your fold!

Is it an omelette (agree with the rubber spatula part)?
